Hi Mike,
I would think your best bet for scanning would be to find a bureau that has a Heidelberg "Topaz" scanner, or similar, they are flatbed, but give drum quality scans.


Sounds an interesting printing process!
Cheers,
John

Hello People,

I've been given an old image, seemingly "printed" onto black shellack or what ever photographers used instead of plastic in the 1920's. The Image itself was shot in 1924 and measures 4 x 6 cm. I need to get a scan of it and a flatbed of the quality I have just doesn't have a low enough D-max since the image is on a drum scan sounds perfect I am concerned as to how it might fit onto the drum (though I admit my knowledge of the mechanics of Drum scanning
